“I’ll park my equipment first.”

Good for you, I say screw these suckers and losers.

It looks like the Biden voter of both political parties, is going have to experience significant economic pain before admitting they were wrong.

It won’t happen because they’re a prideful, stubborn, vain, & stupid.

“the American population will be in a rage...”

___________

Sounds like just another crisis that the Rahm Emmanuels of the world know by now not to let go to waste.

Seriously though, righteous indignation, when it leaks out or is somehow expressed or shown or given voice by an ordinary citizen is by now so easily and rapidly dishonestly recast by our woke bretheren as reflecting or revealing one or another obviously odious social pathology festering deep within the soul of the citizen in question that deliberately engaging in policies and things that can only INCREASE that kind of indignation has, perversely, rapidly become a huge political PRIORITY for big government, big pharma, big healthcare, big data, big social media, big church, big .edu, etc. All of these entities and many more are, in any event, already bent on wrecking society. So this becomes just one more Cloward Piven-type way to hasten the day when they can say, Mission Accomplished.

The consequences are grave if just 3.7% did not work. However, if ten times that many, 37 percent of truck drivers, stopped hauling products because of the Biden vaccine requirement, American civic society would collapse within days as panicked citizens took to the streets. Desperate Americans would be clamoring for scarce products, and the impact on society could not be measured.

This is very interesting in light of how fast store shelves emptied out the first day of the announced (alleged) two week lockdowns.

Considering how many Americans did not feel they had enough groceries to go two weeks without shopping and what they did to store shelves that Friday, if truckers stop hauling for a few days, I could see things getting really ugly really fast in the cities.

It will when they’re starving. You think the stuff your eating like cows hogs and chickens walk to your market. How big was your garden and farm this year? Guess you and your neighbors can kill and eat each other.

“Did you see the 60 Minutes segment last Sunday? I could not help but think how much cheap China kitsch is clogging the chain. Sink it. Make it here. Oh well. Times are changing, and Epstein . . . .”

I missed the 60 minutes segment but I’m telling you the “China delusion” is eroding as we speak.

The immediate problem for domestic manufacturers is capacity and labor. Both got whittled down during the free trade rage from 1970-2016.

This isn’t changing overnight, so expect a lot of disruption and volatility over the next couple of years.

However, eventually America Labor and Capital will reach an equilibrium and we should see solid growth and productivity, by the last 3 years of the decade.

Right now, the customer might always be right but thats not going to help them receive merchandise.

Without the transportation sector running smoothly bottlenecks occur.

Any public or private sector business that “plays along” with these mandates, is the problem.

Supply chains that move people, goods, and services will eventually have an almost irreversible contraction, if these idiots don’t stop their stupidity.

The math didn’t quite work for me, either.

Seemed like a double count.

Get spare parts, extra food etc. for everything you can now. It ain’t gonna get cheaper, and may not even be available at any price.

Assume you won’t be going to a store for at least a year-make a list and prioritize according to necessity-need not want. Get it now. Time is getting short.

That’s about all that can be done at this point.

Maybe somebody was incorporating 2 vaccines => vax'd

Or is that 3? or 4? The numbers keep changing.

Working on it.

Even mr mm, who for years ragged on me about what I have stored up, is on board now.

That’s a major hurdle, as he takes care of the non-household kind of things.

We do need to get new car batteries as ours are almost 6 years old. I need to remind him of that.

Not many 80 year old truckers so the higher survival rate would be more applicable.

This of course means the 63% who HAVE or WILL take the shot will be subject to a 60-70% chance of NOT getting the placebo.

Eventually, that 60-70% of the 63% will die within 3 years due to allergic reactions, blood clots, and ultimately ADE.

What impact will that have on the supply chain?

Less? or More than the 37% who will still be living but not driving because they didn’t take the shot?

That makes two of us!
I will stay home,
Hunt and cut firewood work in the shop!
And load reload ammo.

I work in food distribution and told my boss if the mandate happens I didn’t want to “do double time” to cover those they fire when I should be looking for food to feed myself. Cities will starve and there will be chaos.

Also told him once the slide into chaos happens our warehouses will probably end up being looted. To be optimistic, inventory will be low because in-bounds will be limited so they will only lose $30mil not $70mil.

This will also expose those that have been playing the cash flow game a little too aggressively. Can’t use the vendor’s money for 30 days if they haven’t sold anything to you.
